Cookie basics
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files that a website may ask your browser to store and return during later visits. They can help pages function, remember preferences or support website measurement.
Cookies are separate from cached pages, bookmarks and downloaded files. Browsers may also store information through other site-data features, which have their own controls.

Essential cookies
Essential features and cookies
Core navigation and information pages can be accessed through your browser. Where a feature requires browser data, its behaviour depends on the settings applied to the Fair Go website and your device.
The Fair Go login guide explains how to access an account, but it does not replace the sign-in process. Any external service can apply its own cookie and privacy rules.
Preference cookies
Analytics and marketing settings
The current cookie notice should identify any optional analytics, advertising or third-party technologies used on the relevant pages. Review those details before accepting optional categories.
When you follow an external link, the destination controls its own cookies and privacy practices. Check that website's policy and consent settings separately.
Retention

Common questions
Fair Go Cookies Policy FAQ
Can Australian visitors read Fair Go information without accepting optional cookies?
No. The pages do not set cookies and do not require a consent selection.
Why does my browser still show Fair Go cached files?
A cache stores website files separately from cookies to help pages load. Clear cached files through your browser's settings if you need to remove them.
Will Fair Go remember my page selections?
Some choices may last only while the page is open. Whether browser data remains after that depends on the site's settings and your browser controls.
Do linked websites follow the Fair Go Cookies Policy?
No. An external destination manages its own cookies and privacy practices. Review its policy and settings before continuing.

What the Fair Go cookies policy covers
This Fair Go cookies policy explains how cookies and similar browser technologies may relate to visits from Australia. Cookies are small files that a website can store in a browser to support functions, remember settings or provide information about site activity.
The available information does not publish a complete list of individual cookie names, suppliers or retention periods. Check the current notice and your browser's site-data panel for the clearest details about cookies associated with a visit.
Essential cookies for website functions
Essential cookies can support core website features, navigation and basic security. Their exact behaviour depends on the functions active on the relevant Fair Go page.
Blocking essential cookies may affect navigation, account access or other website functions. Use browser controls carefully and review the result after changing a setting.
Preference and performance cookies
Preference cookies may retain choices such as language, region or consent settings. Performance or analytics cookies may provide information about how pages are used and where technical improvements are needed.
The available brand information does not identify a specific analytics provider or fixed retention period. Review the latest cookie notice and browser information for current details.
Marketing cookies and external content
Marketing or embedded third-party content may involve cookies managed by the relevant service. Those technologies can have separate privacy notices and consent controls.
No specific advertising provider or third-party cookie name is confirmed here. Read the information shown at the point of consent before allowing optional categories.
How to manage Fair Go cookies in your browser
Most current browsers let you accept, block or delete cookies through privacy and security settings. Open the browser menu, find site data or cookie controls, and choose the setting that suits your preferences.
Common ways to manage browser data include:
- Use the Fair Go cookie notice or consent controls to review optional categories.
- Block third-party cookies when you want to limit external tracking.
- Delete Fair Go site data when stored preferences need to be reset.
- Use private browsing for a temporary session, while remembering that it does not make online activity completely anonymous.
- Review browser permissions after installing extensions or changing privacy settings.
Your choices and policy updates
Changing browser settings can affect how Fair Go pages or account features work. Removing stored data may also clear saved choices, so some settings could need to be selected again later.
Cookie practices can change when website functions or external services change. Australian visitors should review the current site notice and linked privacy information. Fair Go provides 24/7 live support for general assistance, while cookie permissions remain controlled through your browser and the relevant consent tools.
